 Works November 14, 2008
Angela (Snohomish, WA)
Got this so I could listen to my ipod in the car. It works but I hate the fact the sound is so crapy. If you don't get it right on the ipod it just has that horrible noise in the background. If I had known this I wouldn't have spent the $13+ for this. Until then I can live with it until I get a receiver that plays ipods.
 Low quality sound November 3, 2008
Xiaozhou Ma (Boston, MA USA)
Retractable cable is a good feature for use, but the sound quality is not good enough. You may hear additional noise, not apparently, but it is there.

draco_cj (Montgomery AL USA)
I had a similar product before (different manufacturer) but after about 2 yrs the cord shorted out, I'm pretty sure it broke at the miniplug attachment. I scoured the market for a replacement, this was one of the few that included automatic retracting, a necessity because this was for my wife's car and she doesn't want loose wires everywhere!
Anyway, it works as advertised, we'll see how long the cord lasts.
Works perfectly! October 20, 2008
Lark (Orange County, CA)
I didn't experience ANY trouble with this product at all, & neither did my friend who also purchased one. The retractable cord is very handy, keeping things neat in the car & making it easy to store. The sound quality is the same as listening to a CD. It's MUCH BETTER than using one of those transmitters because you don't have to worry about static or radio interruption.
I've used it everyday since January '08 & it still works perfectly fine. I always leave it in my car, & in our scorching California summer I was a bit worried that one day it might break from being in oven-like heat. Still fine!
Great mp3 cassette adaptor. Good price and great sound quality. September 30, 2008

American Anko AVB AI-05 Cassette Adapter for iPod and MP3 Players
I bought this cassette adapter because my previous one broke. This one was actually better then my last one. It was better in sound quality, the cord plug at the end was positioned better (my previous one broke because the plug at the end had a bend in it and it would cause problems, this one has the plug straight), and the price was even better. I love the fact that you can wind up the cord so you do not damage the cord while storing it in your car or wherever. It is just a great device and if you have a tape player, I strongly suggest using this over any FM transmitter out there, much better.
